Brain infestation by Cysticercus cellulosae, the larval form of Taenia solium, is a common disorder in Mexico and other Latin American countries, Asia, Africa, and some Eastern European countries. Recent immigration has caused an increase in the number of cases of neurocysticercosis in the United States. This work describes the acute encephalitic form of neurocysticercosis in 26 cases. The clinicopathologic and neuroradiologic manifestations are discussed with particular emphasis on the use of computed tomography as a main diagnosis modality which demonstrates multiple diffuse (85%) or localized (15%) enhancing nodules associated with severe edema.
猪带绦虫的幼虫形式——猪囊尾蚴对脑部的感染，在墨西哥和其他拉丁美洲国家、亚洲、非洲以及一些东欧国家是一种常见疾病。近期的移民导致美国神经囊尾蚴病病例数量增加。这项研究描述了26例急性脑炎型神经囊尾蚴病。文中讨论了其临床病理和神经放射学表现，特别强调了计算机断层扫描作为主要诊断方式的应用，该检查显示出多个弥漫性（85%）或局限性（15%）强化结节，并伴有严重水肿。
